Pros

Clean work environment and snacks in the break room

Cons

Full time employees treat Vendors and Temps with access like puppets and less than people. Some of the vendors have a wide variety of knowledge. But get singled out and terminated if you FTEs feel threatened. Management is so busy with meetings. Issues can not be addressed. The environment of more Vendors and Temps Has creates a hostile work environment. Where back stabbing, lies and a Unethical practices are created. I watched very good employees who had a lot to offer the company get let go. So they can keep people who are at all the happy hour get togethers across the street at the irvine spectrum. Heck they let one guy go because of a family member passing and he missed for bereavement and funeral. That guy save the company over 2 million dollars by fixing reoccurring mistakes. I was very disappointed in the way Day to day operations were handled and the lack of directive and clear narrative given towards employees.

Pros

Great place to work. Although there has been a lot of change over the past few years, I feel the company is back on track. Culture has been dramatically improved.

Cons

Not much at this time. Still lots of change ahead though as the company transforms into a tower focused company.

Pros

Depending on who is running your team (I’ve had 3 different team leads in the 3 years that I’ve been a full time employee,) some have provided great mentoring, and have taught me a lot.

Cons

Job security is extremely unstable, and employees often feel like they are one decision away from becoming part of another layoff statistic. In my experience, women were not always treated equitably compared to their male counterparts, depending heavily on the leadership structure within the department. The company also showed limited willingness to accommodate health conditions, often searching for loopholes to minimize support, assistance, or benefits during times when employees and their families needed them most. Leadership roles often felt transactional and tied directly to the company’s immediate operational goals. For example, when a department needed growth, leadership would bring in individuals with strong industry relationships, connections, and expertise to help expand profitability and establish the department. However, once those goals were achieved and the leader’s network or strategic value had been fully utilized, the company would frequently move on from them—either through reassignment or termination—in favor of the next person who fit the company’s evolving objectives. Overall, the culture created an environment where many employees felt expendable rather than valued long-term.
